Stoked to talk translated lit in Iowa with @willevans.bsky.social & Bela Shayevich!

Everyone knows I owe Chad Post everything & teaming up on @openletterbooks.bsky.social & @dalkeyarchive.bsky.social brings his vision into a publishing house centered on international literature & to connect these books with readers who, like me, are starving for that elusive something MORE

Every day of my life I am grateful for readers like @theuntranslated.bsky.social who build a reading community through literature, & to madmen like @maxlawton.bsky.social & @nordicnovellas.bsky.social who bring books, foreign to me, into a language I can understand, & in turn share with the world

Fernando A. Flores presents his new BROTHER BRONTË out from FSG/MCD tonight at Deep Vellum @deepvellum.bsky.social @fsgbooks.bsky.social

SCHATTENFROH A Requiem August, 2025

The winner is Eve Hill-Agnus' translation of Ultramarine by Mariette Navarro. Coming from @deepvellum.bsky.social This is an award that specifically funds a translation, the book is coming in March and it looks extremely up my alley as a sea-themed spooky SFF novel.

On the road again We just can't wait to get on the road again The life I love is discussing literature with our friends And we can't wait to get on the road again (we just made that up) DEEP VELLUM ON TOUR THIS SPRING:

My blurb

Mircea and the Muse

Happy 10th anniversary to the book that made me a publisher, that changed my life, that continues to be the guide star in the history of Deep Vellum & all we’re trying to do in this world

Deranged merch 2025

Wonderful to meet @willevans.bsky.social and @exhaustdata.bsky.social at Deep Vellum/Dalkey Archive’s Texas Book Festival table. It took a lot of self-control to walk away with only two of their books.

1) cosign 2) the first poem in this piece, after the bio, is magnificent

I have another blurb

Half-way, I am absolutely astounded at how good this is, arguably Cartarescu’s most imaginative, while also reaching a new readability that will attract even readers turned off by Solenoid’s Rabelaisian sensibility. English language readers will get in Sean Cotter’s version in Deep Vellum in 2026.

Giving a talk at UT-Austin at lunch tomorrow & high-tailing it up I-35 in time for Hanif Abdurraqib at Deep Vellum in the evening. Join for one, or for my fellow insane, join for both!

“Who is worthy to open the book?” Theodoros by Mircea Cartarescu, translated by Sean Cotter, forthcoming October 2026 from @deepvellum.bsky.social

Dallas better Fosse up before the arctic blast catches all y’all

Mark your calendars.

Happy 8th book birthday to this satirical sci-fi novel by @kshn.bsky.social that I translated with the help of Dr. Carol Apollonio & Pasha Mrachem (of Шлем & Дотти Дэнжер) published by Restless Books — this translation inspired me to start @deepvellum.bsky.social bookshop.org/a/3255/97816...

anyone see American Fiction yet?

The collection will be complete with @maxlawton.bsky.social’s translation someday

The first book that ever truly blew my mind apart & set me on the reader’s path to seek out books that are portals

Stopped by Lucky Dog Books in Oak Cliff today
